The Complete Devoted Cleric Guide

Welcome to our Devoted Cleric Guide, updated for Ravenloft, mod 14. In this guide, we will give you tips and info on how to play the Devoted Cleric class.

The Devoted Cleric is pretty versatile for a healer and have quite a few utility skills and when soloing they can do quite a good amount of damage. For grouping, you want to focus on debuffing/buffing and healing.

The purpose of our class guides is not just to show you a build that you can copy and use on your character, but to show you a base build and teach you the mechanics and stats of the game, so you can understand and play your class to its fullest capabilities. Try different gear, feats and powers and learn to tailor your own build for your playstyle. See our guide to making your own build for more info.

Best Races as a Devoted Cleric

The below options are the best choices for a Devoted Cleric. In the end, it’s not much of a difference, which one you choose.

Rings:

Shirt & Pants:

Artifacts:

Primary Artifact: Sigil of the Devoted

Secondary Artifacts: Tiamat’s Orb (if using the set) – Symbol of Fire – Sigil of the Hunter – Symbol of Air

Devoted Cleric Enchantments

When getting enchantments, always get the ones with the stats you are lacking in with your gear, boons, etc in mind. For example, if you’ve capped Crit with your gear and boons, don’t get azure enchantments for your offense slots. If you still need to refine your enchantments, see our Refinement Guide for tips on how to farm refinement.

Devoted Cleric Companions

Companion Gear

For the companion gear from Illusionist’s Gambit, the +4 rings are actually better than the +5 as they have two offensive/defensive enchantment slots and the +5 has an overload slot.

Fierce/Heroic/Sturdy – Belt/Ring/Neck/ Gear of the Companion

Masterwork Rings

+4/+5 Rings

Companion Runestones: Bonding Runestones

Devoted Cleric Mounts

When choosing a Legendary Mount for the Mount Powers, look for a mount that has both a useful equip and combat power. The best choices for a first legendary mount as a Devoted Cleric are Swift Golden Lionor Commander Tyrannosaur

What other mounts you use is not that important. What is important is to get the right insignia bonuses, and many different mounts can offer the various bonuses. To find out what mount has the bonus you want, check out our Insignia Bonus Guide.

All classes and specs should consider using Wanderer’s Fortune before you have refined all your gear and enchantments, for extra refinement every day.

Nice bold guide, however I feel that this guide is better suited to the ACDC build. A DODC should use Black Ice enchants in every slot, because they have a more offensive role in the group. Recovery is not as important as crit and armour pen, unlike the AC build, who should stack cruels for as much power and recovery possible let to double stack AA buff.
